Deuteronomy 8:

11Beware that you do not forget the Lord your God by not keeping His commandments, His precepts, and His statutes which I command you today,

12Lest when you have eaten and are full, and have built goodly houses and live in them,

13And when your herds and flocks multiply and your silver and gold is multiplied and all you have is multiplied,

14Then your [minds and] hearts be lifted up and you forget the Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage,

15Who led you through the great and terrible wilderness, with its fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty ground where there was no water, but Who brought you forth water out of the flinty rock,

16Who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers did not know, that He might humble you and test you, to do you good in the end.

17And beware lest you say in your [mind and] heart, My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.

18But you shall [earnestly] remember the Lord your God, for it is He Who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.

19And if you forget the Lord your God and walk after other gods and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish.

20Like the nations which the Lord makes to perish before you, so shall you perish, because you would not obey the voice of the Lord your God.

Words to a certain people at a certain time in the past. Sometimes the words have an enduring message, but often it is more like a history of something in the past. Taken out of the historical context, many false teachings have come from the Bible. There are many truths that we can live by today, but some of the Bible is a record of what was said and done in the past.
